In order to adapt to international communication and meet the higher requirement for interpreters, cultivating interpreters has been strengthened. However, due to the limitation of technology, the learning methods were more limited to the classroom, which leads students to a situation lacking enough opportunities to experience and practice interpretation. The technology of Virtual Reality (VR) is a rational combination between actual interpretation practice and simulative interpretation environment. Based on the working principle of VR technology, this paper attempts to apply VR technology to interpretation learning so as to achieve the goal that interpretation learners become high-level, applied, professional interpreters under the more flexible, creative, and effective learning model which can meet the need of improving international competitiveness, and also meet the needs of the national economy, culture, and social development.
